Outstanding Jacket - and a real bargain
I purchased this jacket hurriedly from a local dealer when I purchased my '15 Ninja 650 ABS. I had a HD mesh jacket that I wore for a couple years on my Street Glide - and you know, I just couldn't roll out of there in pirate regalia on a Ninja. I essentially purchased based on the recommendation of the sales associate and in the back of my head was thinking "I wish you guys had a decent leather selection" - I was buying a bike..... more money than sense, if you know what I mean.
It turns out to be a wonderful jacket and although I did just place a Revzilla order for a Alpinestars GP-M leather jacket, I'm sure this Joe Rocket Reactor 3 will be my primary.
I was drawn at first to the hybrid aspects.... then the fit grew on me. I have a manly man neck.... there's plenty of room. I have broad shoulders and a gut - and it fits as it should. It's comfortable. Airflow is tremendous. The CE armor is non-intrusive and plentiful. The back protector is great, and can be upgraded to CE for a reasonable amount of cash. The zippers and general finish are all high quality. The liner is full and can be attached and detached in under a minute.
All this, and it looks great too.
The fit is true. I'm 5'10 210 and an XL fits me well - I have broad shoulders and long arms and don't feel cramped at all.
I highly recommend the Joe Rocket Reactor 3 - and I'm happy that the sales associate steered me to it. It's a bargain. I can buy any jacket I want - and I'd buy this one again without giving it a second thought.

Great product for a great price
Liked the style and fit. It looks great first try but liked the option to send it back if it didn't.

The quintessential summer riding jacket
I'm a rather critical reviewer but this jacket has surprised and impressed me for the price. I bought this jacket strictly for fair-weather, summer riding. I'm a new, older, rider and recently passed the MSF course.
Protection means a lot to me, but comfort, visibility and breathability all add up to mean something too. In my opinion Joe Rocket tackled all those issues and nailed it with this jacket. I'm a muscular/husky guy (5'10" 240lbs) and the jacket measurements provided here were extremely accurate to the actual fit of the jacket. All the Rocket logos and piping in the back is reflective.
For me, leather was a must have at least on the key crash points along with CE rated armor. The hybrid blend or leather and mesh on this jacket is just brilliant. The leather is supple and thick, the mesh is a moderately tight weave with key areas of less density (for air flow). The jacket felt invisible on my 30-40mph ride through side roads in 80*F heat. For what it's worth, there are various form pads added at the collar bones and the hip/ribs area as well. Included is a sturdy foam back pad that is NOT CE rated, but upgradable.
All adjustment points are well laid out, effective and strong. The forearm adjustments work well and I actually had to move mine to the tighter setting, which worked great. Zippers all work very well and have a secure, quality feel to them. The general form and fit of this jacket is excellent, there is a moderate precurve to the arms but you could almost get away with using this as an off-the-bike jacket too. The pads stay in place very well and don't add a lot of bulk.
The rain-resistant, wind proof liner is nothing more than a nylon liner, thin and not breathable, I can't see myself ever using this.
All in all, I'm thoroughly impressed and satisfied with my purchase, for the price you're getting a high quality, well thought out jacket with a lot of function.
If I had to complain about one thing, it would be that the zipper head can occasionally get hung up on the leather stripe that goes across the chest, wiggle the zipper or put your index finger in front of it and it's not an issue.
I choose this instead of the Radar Jacket, I just couldn't get a jacket with a hump, and the Radar Dark is sans hump, but it's just that, dark...I wanted some visibility. You do loose the full leather back and some breathability but it's significantly more comfortable and less heavy. I can't recommend this jacket enough.

Awesome jacket.
I'm a bigger guy, 6'1" 220 lbs, and this jacket in XL fits me perfectly. The sleeves have snaps where you can adjust the sleeves so they can fit a wide variety of arm sizes.
I live in eastern WA where, in the summertime, the temps are regularly in the high 90s and 100+ isn't uncommon. This jacket flows enough air where I can still be comfortable at those temps.
The removable liner this comes with works well enough. It keeps the cold air out and I was riding in the winter with temps in the low 20s, and with decent base layers I wasn't freezing.
The styling of it isn't too over the top. I'm not a fan of the power ranger look and was happy with this jacket. The leather at the shoulders and elbows gives me extra confidence that I'll be protected if I ever go down with this jacket on.
Overall I think this jacket is a decent value for the money and would have no problem recommending it to anyone.

Great Buy!
I've been riding with this jacket almost daily for a few months from weather between 85deg and down to 40deg. Very nice jacket. Jacket breathes very well in heat and liner does great in colder weather to break the wind. Beef up your base clothing like a hoody and it's good in 40deg weather (approx 35deg chill riding) Definately a good buy!

Great all around jacket you won't regret purchasing
Great all around jacket. Have to make alteration to rear zipper so that I can attach my AGV Telluride H2O pants. I'm 5'9 155 athletic build went for the large and fits great with some room for some more layers of needed but doesn't look like the jacket is to big. Sleeves can go tight to your wrist if you prefer to go over them with your winter gloves or loosen them if you prefer to go over your gloves. Could have used a couple of more reflective strips. Ride safe! and don't forget to wave!

Shayne C: The breathablity, the leather in the impact areas, the full removable liner, the extra rib and collar bone padding, and the better than average back protector pad.Dec 8, 2014

Rahil T: I just bought my first motorcycle. 2009 kawasaki vulcan 900 custom (ebony edition). Have been researching quite a bit about whats the best product for my price range. Joe Rocket products have great customer reviews with regards to quality, comfort and durability. I chose this particular jacket for the style with standard protection and also option of removable waterproof inner lining for multiple seasons. Will post my reviews after some use.Nov 19, 2014

Gerald H: Looks great. Felt like good construction. Not good for someone like me with a beer gut. Is adjustable to some extent but made more for slimmer people.Jul 18, 2014

Natee K: I chose this Joe Rocket Reactor 3.0 Jacket because of a blend of function, protection, and style for the price.May 4, 2014

Jose C: Ventilation, looks and price were the main reasons why I picked this jacket. Originally got a size medium, it felt like it was a bit too big on the shoulders and torso. Exchanged it for a size small and this one was too tight on the forearms not allowing me to flex my arms freely. I should note that I'm very picky with the way a jacket fits me so I guess Joe Rocket was just not for me, nonetheless this is a very nice jacket, I wish either of those sizes fit me better.Apr 1, 2014

Christopher D:I ordered mine online so I didn't get to try on the different sizes, but the sizing guide was a big help.Based on that, I went with the SM. I'm 5'10" and about 140-ish...I was going to go with the MD, but I'm glad I got out the measuring tape because the small fits me quite well.Hope that helps.CheersApr 22, 2014

Donald T:I can't answer your question perfectly because I don't have the Jacket in front of me at the moment but let me assure you before I get into the specifics this jacket is great. I have had it for over a year and it is still a great jacket.

OK, I don't have specific dimensions but the armor pocket in the back is standard. Any after market back pad will fit like the Force Field armor. If your Jacket is a larger size the a Large back pad would work, If medium then a medium back pad would work..I think you get it.

Not sure what the CE rating is for Elbow and Shoulder Armor but they are removable but there is no need because they seem to be very good quality much like the Force Field armor.Jun 24, 2014

Joseph K:We get very few 100 degree days in PA but the Joe Rocket 3.0 jacket really flows the air. My only problem is color - the majority of the jacket and all of the pants are BLACK. Very hot in the sun when not moving, like in traffic. Otherwise, I love the jacket. Fit is true and styling excellent. Aug 19, 2014
